Still no odds being posted so I guess the bookies reckon the decision has been made - maybe IHE was onto something....

My perfect cousin - The Undertones "he flicked the kick" He's gotta degree in economics Maths - physics and bionics He thinks that I'm a cabbage Cos I hate university challenge Even at the age of ten Smart boy Kevin was a smart boy then He always beat me at Subbuteo Cos he flicked the kick And I didn't know Oh my perfect cousin ..

The club has spoken to Sutton yesterday also but I don't think you are far off there....

I dug out the Caley v Leicester City programme from March 1983 and both Kevin MacDonald and Ian Wilson were in the Leicester City side that evening (Nicky Walker was in the stand) as well as a certain G. Lineker (wonder whatever happened to him.... )

Now there's a new name to add to the mix....

Victor Chandler's have pulled their bet special on the Inverness Manager - do you think they know something or just bored by it all....?

Rory has left the club by mutual consent according to article on official site Official Site Article Good luck to him wherever he ends up - you never know we may see him back at the stadium with the away team one day soon. Has another striker been identified yet I wonder....any of those potential managers strikers....? Damn one of them is - well here we go again....

Inverness have spoken to one of the candidates for their managerial vacancy - but they still have at least four more to speak to over the weekend. Caledonian Thistle chairman George Fraser and director of football Graeme Bennett interviewed one contender in person on Thursday. And they hope to speak to the others by Monday, allowing an appointment to be made early next week. BBC Article on Interviews It seems the three is now five....it's going to be a busy weekend....

I have some vague recollection that in the early 80's there was an HL championship flag that said Caledonion. 'Mon the Onions! Sorry off topic but Class Comment - they should have known better and not sent it to A4 PRINT

How do you think the ICT Board are financing the new signings? That must explain why Paul Lambert has just been added to the list at 25/1.... :thumb04: See Barry is also now down to 14/1....McCall slipping also (phew....)

The big movers from this morning's odds seem to be Knox 8/1 to 9/4 and Sutton 14/1 to 13/2 with the biggest mover Malpas (this one is worrying) from 22/1 to 12/1....and Ardiles has been shortened further from 2/1 to 7/4....somebody must be laying big money somewhere.... Still none the wiser though....

Heskey's not coming then.... Seriously though - since Bayne went this is the kind of forward I would like to see coming to Inverness Heskey signs for Villa

Interestingly the odds have just been suspended and removed - will interesting to see what appears next....

Once I can extract my PayPal password from my wife I will be signing up again also - must admit I have been meaning to return the paper form for several weeks now but just not got around to it - great idea and shows what can be done with some determination, dedication and technical support (unlike my paper application).... edit: signed up :thumb04:

has a vast network of contacts in the game but has he ever managed? would love to see him as assistant manager if not If not Robertson then both Knox and Calderwood appeal to me (but I don't think Calderwood is in contention) and if Knox is a serious candidate then he would be a good appoitment from a coaching perspective - interestingly the latest odds have changed again - they now show Ardiles as favourite just ahead of Robertson and McCall third....and Herr Krauss has appeared on the list.... Ossie Ardiles 2 John Robertson 5/2 Ian McCall 4 Terry Butcher 9/2 Barry Wilson 6 Archie Knox 8 Gordon Chisholm 11 Bern Krauss 12 Willie Donnachie 12 Chris Sutton 14 Derek McInnes 14 Kevin MacDonald 14 Charlie Christie 16 Steven Pressley 16 Eric Black 16 Neale Cooper 20 Colin Calderwood 20 Stevie Frail 20 Bruce Rioch 20 Maurice Malpas 22 Alex Rae 22 Colin Hendry 25 Jim Duffy 25 Derek Adams 28 Duncan Shearer 33 Craig Brown 33 Steve Paterson 33 Bobby Williamson 33

Interesting article that from 2002 - the other candidates listed were John Robertson (Livi), Alan Kernaghan (Clyde) and Ian Wilson (Peterhead) - all ex-players and none of them are working as football managers at present as far as I am aware.... Wikipedia even states that Ian Wilson disappeared only to be spotted on a beach in Turkey in 2008 - I know it is slightly off topic but is that wiki truth or bluff - anybody know? Ian Wilson - Wikipedia

I assume the club had somebody at the game tonight watching our potential opponents? Usually the manager or his assistant would attend these games - otherwise Northern Jaggie could you fax your match report to 01463 227479 FAO Mr G Bennettt Esq. - cheers

Here's a seaman joke. Strewth that takes me back a few years - the 1995 Cup Winners Cup Final - I remember seeing that goal being scored on a ferry that had just left Santander in Northern Spain heading to the UK. Managed to see the whole game before we were too far out and lost reception. I also remember that we stayed a couple of nights at a camp-site that was located on the cliffs overlooking San Sebastian and was amazed that you could get british football commentary on the car radio albeit not the best reception quality....

Is it Prunty never played 100 games for ICT - the others have all played at least 100 games

What kind of compensation would a club like villa be looking at for O'Neill....

3-1 in the end.... There might indeed have been a suspicion of hand ball with Prunty's goal....

Still would prefer to see Robbo over your man - nice lad though he is I am not sure if this is the right time for him - I might well be wrong but if he does get the job good luck to him....

So what you are saying is a different type of villian will be in charge by Monday - I hope you got your bet on at 11/1

You know when one of the headlines earlier in the week said "Wilson favourite for Caley Thistle job" I thought the same thing.... :thumb04: If the old man turns down an approach - i'd be happy to oblidge. After all, I'm a bit more local than the old man.... You could still be his assistant.... :018:

Surely not the Marriott country club?
